Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to a vacuum cleaner nozzle provided with a hatch for access to a motorized brush.
  • vacuum cleaner nozzles such as that described in document FR 11 58711 , where the disclosed nozzle comprises a lower sole which comprises at least one suction channel open towards the ground and which converges from an outer rim of the sole towards a suction port connected to the vacuum cleaner.
  • the disclosed nozzle is triangular and in a variant this may comprise a motorized brush.
  • this system has the drawback of having no protective element for the motorized brush which is thus directly in contact with the ground. In this case, it is observed that when the nozzle is used in particular configurations, it is possible that the motorized brush is damaged when an element comes into contact with the rotation shaft of the brush.
  • the document GB2413942 presents a nozzle fitted with a hatch for access to a motorized brush.
  • the motorized brush is inserted behind this hatch and when using the squeegee, the hatch allows to a certain extent to protect the motorized brush.
  • the advantage of such a structure is that the shaft of this brush is protected by the hatch and the risk of degradation is limited.
  • the drawback of such a system is that the suction qualities of the nozzle are degraded in favor of the safety of the motorized brush.
  • the sole of the hatch is substantially flat, which implies that all the air sucked in is through the suction port integrated in the hatch. In this case, there is no control of the air speeds towards the inside of the squeegee.
  • DE202009017029 discloses a vacuum cleaner nozzle according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • US 2003/182752 discloses a vacuum cleaner nozzle with a motorized brush and a removable hatch fixed by clips.
  • An aim of the present invention is to respond to the drawbacks of the documents of the prior art mentioned above and in particular, all first, to provide a vacuum cleaner nozzle in which a removable motorized brush is protected and accessible to a user and this without the suction qualities being degraded.
  • a first aspect of the invention relates to a vacuum cleaner nozzle which comprises a sole.
  • the sole comprises at least one suction channel open towards the ground and the suction channel converges from an outer rim of the sole towards a suction orifice in aeraulic connection with a vacuum cleaner.
  • the sole comprises a removable hatch for access to a motorized brush which comprises on the one hand the suction orifice and on the other hand at least one suction channel open towards the ground and arranged as a screw. -à-vis-à-vis said at least one suction channel of the sole.
  • the vacuum cleaner nozzle comprises a cavity open towards the ground, and the hatch is arranged on the cavity, which means that the hatch can at least partially cover the cavity.
  • a particularly interesting embodiment consists in that the hatch completely covers said cavity.
  • the area of the trap door is equal to the area of the cavity which is directed towards the ground.
  • the hatch of the vacuum cleaner nozzle comprises a hooking device for maintaining said hatch on the sole.
  • the device for attaching the hatch is a system of clips.
  • This hooking device has the advantage of handling the hatch quickly. The user can thus quickly remove the hatch in order to access the cavity, or replace it quickly to isolate the cavity.
  • the vacuum cleaner nozzle is substantially triangular with a point directed in the direction of movement of the squeegee.
  • a user manipulates the squeegee, he can move it in all directions of the ground, but there is a preferred direction of movement which is generally that given by the architecture of the wheels.
  • the preferred direction of movement is given by the bisector of the triangle formed by the nozzle. In this way, the tip of the squeegee is directed in the direction of movement of the squeegee.
  • the longitudinal axis of the hatch is substantially perpendicular to the direction of movement of the nozzle.
  • the vacuum cleaner nozzle comprises a removable motorized brush.
  • This motorized brush can be removed by a user for maintenance needs of changing the brush or even cleaning it.
  • this brush can have different shapes and different means of rotation.
  • the vacuum cleaner nozzle comprises wheels which define a ground clearance for the sole.
  • the squeegee and therefore the lower sole of the squeegee, is positioned at a predetermined height from the ground by the wheels. Wheels are added under the nozzle at the level of the sole.
  • a second aspect of the invention is a vacuum cleaner comprising at least one nozzle according to the first aspect of the invention.
  • the figure 1 shows a vacuum cleaner nozzle 1 which comprises a sole 14 and wheels 2 whose profile of a tread 15 is barrel-shaped and which defines a ground clearance of the sole 14 when the nozzle 1 rests on a ground smooth. At least two rollers 3 are also arranged under the sole 14.
  • the nozzle 1 is generally in the shape of a triangle and a point 30 of the triangle is positioned in the direction of movement of the nozzle 1.
  • a sealing lip or sealing flap 4 is arranged around the sole 14. This sealing flap 4 eliminates leaks between the smooth ground and the sole 14, and in order to have good efficiency. suction, the sealing flap 4 is perforated facing the channels 10 of the sole 14, so that the air sucked under the sole 14 can only enter directly into the channels 10 of the sole 14. It The result is good suction of impurities from the ground because the air speeds in the channels 10 of the sole 14 are maximum, since all the air sucked up passes through them.
  • the wheels 2 position the squeegee 1 in height relative to the ground.
  • the sealing flap 4 skims the ground, so as to suppress air leaks between the ground and the sole 14, and openings 5 of the sealing flap 4 arranged directly opposite the channels 10 allow air to pass. in these to drive away the impurities resting on the soil.
  • the figure 2 allows to visualize the sole 14 on which there is a plurality of suction channels 10 open towards the ground and the suction channels 10 converge from an outer rim of the sole 14 towards a suction orifice 9 in aeraulic connection with a vacuum cleaner (not shown).
  • air connection is meant that the air flow which converges in the orifice 9 suction is then sucked through a hose (not shown) connected to the suction and filtering system of the vacuum cleaner.
  • at least one of the channels 10 opens into the tip 30 of the nozzle 1.
  • the squeegee 1 comprises a hatch 13 which is located substantially in the same plane as the sole 14.
  • This hatch 13 comprises the suction orifice 9 and suction channels 20 open towards the ground. .
  • These suction channels 20 are arranged opposite the suction channels 10 of the sole 14 in order to maintain the suction flow.
  • the channels 20 of the hatch 13 and the channels 10 of the sole 14 have their contiguous parts which have substantially a similar profile.
  • the channels 20 of the hatch 13 and the channels 10 of the sole 14 have substantially the same diameter over their entire length.
  • the purpose of this is to create a regular passage channel which allows the flow of air passing through not to experience any sudden variation in its flow rate.
  • the variation in diameter does not vary by more than 5 percent. . Thanks to this device, the quality of the suction is maintained.
  • this hatch 13 is removable and can be removed from the sole 14.
  • This hatch 13 is substantially rectangular and comprises a hooking device.
  • this hooking device consists of mechanical clips made up on the one hand of lugs 7 and on the other hand of grooves 6.
  • Such a device allows a user to remove this hatch 13 without the aid of handling tools such as for example screwdrivers or Allen keys.
  • Such a device therefore has the advantage of rapidly removing the hatch 13.
  • the user simply presses mechanically at the level of the lugs 7 which has the effect of releasing them from the retaining grooves 6 and thus of being able to. remove the hatch 13.
  • the reverse operation is also rapid since it suffices for the user to slide the lugs 7 into the grooves 6 provided for this purpose and then apply a slight pressure on the flap 13 at the level of these lugs 7 so that the flap 13 remains held by these clips.
  • this cavity 21 has substantially the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped and has its longitudinal axis which is substantially perpendicular to the direction of movement of the nozzle 1.
  • the longitudinal axis of the hatch 13 corresponds to the axis which starts from one end of the hatch 13 and which s' extends lengthwise.
  • the direction of movement of the nozzle 1 represents the direction in which a user uses the nozzle 1 in a normal mode of use on a floor.
  • the tip 30 of the triangular nozzle 1 is oriented in the direction of movement of the nozzle 1 when it is used in a normal mode of use.
  • a brush 8 is visible on the figure 4 and in the context of the invention, this brush 8 is motorized and is removable. This brush is inserted into the cavity 21 and is held there by a hooking device.
  • This hooking device can be of different types and in the context of the invention it consists on the one hand, and on a first side of the brush, of a groove 12 and on the other hand, and of the on the other side of the brush, a bayonet system 11. This bayonet system 11 makes it possible to set the brush 8 in rotation when the system for setting the brush in rotation (not visible) is active.
  • the vacuum cleaner creates an air flow which is sucked in the channels 10 towards the suction orifice 9.
  • the nozzle 1 comprises the motorized brush 8 protected by the hatch 13 as described above
  • the air flow first passes through the channels 10 then the channels 20 to arrive in the orifice 9 d aspiration.
  • the addition of a protective hatch 13 for the brush 8 allows, thanks to the channels 20 of the hatch 13, to maintain a constant suction flow and not to reduce the quality. suction.
